Beginners Drawing Workshop

What To Expect

​

  • We will start the day by working on right-brain activities to help you to see better.  When you learn to see shapes and lines and tones, it will be easier to draw them.

  • Students will spend time doing blind-contour drawings and a modified contour drawing of your own footwear.

  • Finally, you will be offered dozens of high-quality photos to use as reference for your final sketch.

  • Students work at their own pace.

  • The workshop runs from 10 a.m. through to 4 p.m. with one hour off for lunch.  

  • Bring your own lunch;  you are welcome to eat it in the studio.  Alternatively, you could take the hour to check out a local restaurant.

  • Coffee/tea & snacks provided

  • Cost:  $90.00

  • Address:  8705 Dale Road, north of Cobourg, ON
